It’s been a while since I did a Nûby review! We received the Octopus Floating Bath Toy, designed to help develop hand-eye coordination. And it’s fun too!
The toy comes with three little rings that you toss and want to catch on the octopus’ tentacles. This is Baby J’s new favorite toy. His face just lit up when I placed it in the bathtub the first time. And he’s been taking it to bed with him. -_- Yup. I have photo proof.
This BPA-free toy is designed for 18 months and up, but Baby J’s not coordinated enough to toss the rings onto the tentacles. Actually, I tried from about three feet away and only got two out of three. Obviously I need to work on my fine motor/throwing skills. Baby J just places the rings on the tentacles, pulls them off, and repeat.
I think the only thing that would make this toy more fun would be to include even more rings to toss. There are six tentacles but only three rings. Or perhaps sell some rings separately too, so we can add to the set.

Love this brand, their toys are so brightly colored and whimsical!
What a cute toy! I love the bright colors. And, for motor coordination, placing the rings on the tentacles and pulling them off seems like a great developmental skill to develop.
He looks like fun!! My boys would have loved playing with him. Why does it always feel like the older our kids get the better baby’s toys get?!
I definitely feel that way, even though my son’s 21 months. I see stuff I wish they’d had when he was a newborn!
My little guys love playing with bath toys! My hubby is always complaining their is no room to get washed because toys are everywhere!! lol
From the photo it looks as if the Octopus doesn’t take water inside, which is great. 1 because my kids like to squirt those kinda toys all over the bathroom and also I hate when water gets stuck inside I end up having to throw them away. I’m always worried about bacteria.
Hi Savannah, you’re correct; there are no holes. I know what you mean! The squirter types seem to retain old water and collect bacteria (gross).
Oh so cute. My 4 year old would even love that.
Those are some pretty cute toys for the kids…
My daughter would love that.
So cute!
What a great toy! It looks like a lot of fun. I think that could easily help a child with hand-eye coordination. May need to add it to Babe’s birthday list. Thanks for sharing!
These look like great toys! I need to share this with my sis. I bet my nephew would love them!
awwwww – TOO TOO cute – makes ya wish sometimes you were a kid…. 😀
I know, right?
Oh that looks like an awesome bath toy! Nuby makes things I didn’t realize they made. I thought it was just bottles and pacifiers. My kids need new bath toys, so I’ll have to look for this in stores.
Hi Heather, they have a great bath toy line, as well as teethers, feeding supplies, medical/hygiene products, etc. We even have a Nuby booster seat!
Bath toy looks adorable. Definitely a great way to keep a child entertained while cleaning them in the tub!
What a great toy!
That looks like such a fun bath toy. I will keep this in mind for my nephew’s first birthday.
So Colorful & Fun Looks Like a Great Product!!
My daughter was an octopus freak! She never would have put this thing down! But she’s 23 now, so she might not be as into it 😉
Hahah, I guess not!
thanks for sharing. I will be sure to go check this out. I think my daughter would enjoy this bath toy, too.
Adorable! The kid and the toy.
Thanks, Jaymi!
I absolutely love nuby!
This is how we bathe them little kiddos with love. So cutie!!!
This is so cute! I know some little kids that would love this! Thanks for a great review!
How cute is that octopus? My daughter has one too but not as big and cute as this one and she loves playing with it at bath time. I guess it’s a kid thing 🙂
This is really a cut toy. I have always loved Nuby products.
Nuby is a great brand that I have been using for 10 years now lol! Bath toys are the best! My 8 month old daughter would love this.
